The office of Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., has drafted the Save America's Pollinator's Act, which calls on the Environmental Protection Agency to suspend the use of most harmful neonicotinoids for use in seed treatment, soil application and foliage treatment within 180 days and conduct a review on their safe use. It also calls for the office of the Secretary of the Interior, in collaboration with the EPA, to report on the decline of native bee populations and its causes in the U.S.

Pollinator Week is both a celebration of role of pollinators in providing humans with food and sustaining life-giving plants ,and a warning about the dramatic (over 80%) decline of some pollinator populations.
